COSMIC looks awesome in screenshots though.
I’ve heard that the brand new Nvidia 555 drivers actually work with Wayland. I was ready to switch my gaming laptop to Linux but I may wait a few weeks for the driver to release out of beta. (Arch users shut up, lol.)
No, sadly, it shipped with windows 8.1. Chrome OS would have at least made sense.
How’d you get this picture of my Grindr DMs?
I mentioned this elsewhere but this hyfetch isn’t actually fair to the crapbook. I had Firefox open as well, with Lemmy as the only open tab (so it’s totally usable, who needs to do anything other than post on Lemmy?). It was actually 1.03 Gb ram consumption on the terminal after closing Firefox.
Glados the crapbook is now running bunsenlabs and it’s sitting at 745M on the desktop according to conky.
What instructions are you following? Last time I used Rufus on Windows, it had a graphical interface with reasonable default settings and zero messing around on the command line. (I mean, I sometimes did once I was booted into Linux, but I was using distros where that’s not unexpected.)
Nah, I actually really liked bunsenlabs when I tried running it live, so I’m going to install that, at least for a bit. I might try a different DE with Debian, XFCE was fine but not amazing.
It’s Bazzite on wildly impractical hardware. I had the installer on my ventoy USB and decided to try and install it on my crapbook for shits and giggles.
No, it doesn’t run well. But to be fair, I also had Firefox open on another desktop with the only open tab being Lemmy.
I once saw a webcomic many years ago with a straight couple in kink gear in front of a computer, and the guy was saying something like “You’ve been a bad girl, I’m installing Windows ME on your computer.”
I tried searching for it, but I can’t find it. :/
My brother was assigned that in school and we had it in the RV on a camping trip, so I picked it up and read it one evening. Both the info on citrus growing, and the violence, are things I still remember. Fucked up.
Was it assigned reading? Where did you go to school? I’ve always wondered if that book made it into reading lists anywhere outside of Florida.
I have played quidditch, with the broom.
I spent more time trying not to trip over said broom than actually playing. And I’m somewhat athletic. It wasn’t great.
Oh no, it’s going to be monetized to hell, isn’t it?
Because there’s several comment chains about the use of pronouns and I wasn’t quite sure where to add this, I decided to do a top level comment. She wrote an autobiographical retrospective of her transition on her University of Michigan faculty page twenty years ago about a transition that started long before that (and her main faculty page is a fascinating time capsule of trans history). When I came out as trans in 2012 her page was already a bit dated and the start of my transition, as I experienced it, was firmly in the bad old days. Conway was part of a much older generation of trans people, and there were narratives we had to force ourselves into in order to access healthcare, especially the ideas that we always knew and the idea of being born in the wrong body, and (in her generation but not mine) the idea that you had to be heterosexual post-transition. For some, it fit well enough, but for others it was an act for the doctors just to get life saving healthcare.
The obituary I posted reads like it was written twenty years ago and would have been incredibly respectful back then. It’s narratively in line with the framework of stories trans people had available to explain their lived experiences in the generation Lynn Conway was part of, and ones that Conway herself used extensively in her autobiographical work. I’m glad public understanding has grown and the narrative frameworks available have expanded. I feel like the obituary is in line with her own lived experiences as she understood them.
Look at all the lurkers, lol.
I’ve always been curious about who is downvoting my stuff, I know on Reddit I’d occasionally get someone butthurt about my existing on the internet and they’d just go downvote all of my recent posts and comments.
Wasn’t the first indication of JK Rowling being a TERF a Tweet she liked?
Because Facebook’s data practices, and how much was volunteered by users on there, means that for some percentage of trans users Facebook knows that they’re trans. And you also have a percentage of pregnancy photos uploaded, if someone identifies as a woman on Facebook, and has uploaded photos with a baby bump, she’s cis (or at least a pre-hatching trans person). And at one point in time, a lot of people just volunteered that info to Facebook.
I guarantee you that Facebook could build one.
I wasn’t able to find one. Which, if anyone saw my shitpost, is the real reason I installed it on my crapbook. I found out that the installer is pretty great, it just worked out of the box (at least on that computer, my gaming machine has an Nvidia graphics card…), and that GMOME isn’t really for me.
